		<title>Bloody Hell!  Meta Descriptions And Meta Keywords Are Back?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Those of you who’ve been marketing on the Internet since the 1990’s will remember the hazy far off days when “meta descriptions” where SEO magic, the biggest news on the news sites was somebody called Monica and a mysterious Presidential stain on her dress, and Linux was going to take over the desktop within 12 to 18 months.In 2010 things are different, right?  Meta descriptions are out, nobody remembers Monica – or her dress,  and Linux has taken over the desktop.]]></description>

		<title>Are You A Social Media Bull Ant?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Social media has it’s own native fauna that run around, with out the “flight” mechanism, with large pincers to grip their prey, carrying venom sacks with which to inject us with.  Like the Australian Bull Ant this is a primitive species that first appeared millions of bytes ago – on UseNet.  While primitive it’s an adaptable survivor.  It’s survived the age of the NTTP server, the Dot Bomb Ice Age and is thriving deep in this modern inter-web era of RSS.It’s a ferocious consumer that will “follow” you and attack if you get to near or if it sees you first.  Dropping a firecracker in a nest of them is devastating – to you! Attempting to squash them underfoot will result in a painful bite that may need more than an ice pack.  There is no commercially available spray for treatment.]]></description>

		<title>2009 Epic Fail. Glad Its Over. Towards 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ If 2008 was a good year, and in many ways it was for me, 2009 was an Epic Fail.  I mean EPIC.
It began with good intentions.  An application to finish that was six months overdue and the core of my start-up.  By years end I’d made less progress than in the last six months [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why I have bothered with the Windows 7 logo program</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Across on his blog Andy Bryce has written some very good reasons for why he won't be bothering with the round of Windows 7 logos marketing Microsoft has launched.  First I should point out that there is a difference between the "Compatible with Windows 7 logo" and associated marketing materials and the "Certified For" program run by Microsoft.  The latter, I'm in full agreement with Andy.  I saw no benefit in the Vista version and see no beneift in the Windows 7 version.
Rather we're talking about the logo to the left of this article.]]></description>

		<title>Copyright Law &#8211; An Australian Political Perspective</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ordinarily I keep my political activities seperate to this blog.  However I published an article today, on copyright, that may be of interest to developers and Micro ISV's, particularly those residing in Australia.It doesn't state anything we haven't heard many times before, as developers, but it is an opening gambit, in the public political sense, of mine on this issue.  The objective is to raise awareness overtime and hopefully nip in the bud certain subversive influences I'm aware of, in the political scene here in Australia, in relation to this issue.]]></description>
